If a team drafts a quarterback with the first or second pick they are a franchise quarterback. They may completely fail and in 2-3 years they will no longer be the franchise quarterback. But if you are drafting a QB that early you are banking on them being good and you are building the franchise around them. So yes, if Jameis Winston is drafted in the top 2, he is a franchise quarterback until he isn't.

Browns (home dog late in season fighting for playoff spot with a QB fighting for his job)
Cardinals (not going to overreact to last 2 games. good team at home)
Lions (Bucs just fired their offensive coordinator, are ready for another implosion.)
Eagles (another good team playing at home late in the year. Eagles deserve more respect than this line)
Bills (dont feel good about this at all, but Bills have a solid D, can see them keeping this close)
Chargers (SD is rejuvenated, have a national TV game at home vs east coast team, will play well)
Packers (wont be close. Falcons only hope is a backdoor cover)

I never said MLB was more popular than the NFL. I just said MLB has very strong drawing power at the local level. So you seem to be upset about a point that was never made. And the Vikings were a playoff team last year. Most tickets are sold before the season begins.

Yes, but it is usually a sweater vest with the red sleeves still showing.To see no red at all is very unusual. I'm not saying it has never happened, but I couldn't find another example in the photo archives.

Well, I have a copy of the replay rules right here in front of me and I don't see where it says all 3-point shots have to be reviewed. I also don't see where it says coaches get challenges and that refs have to review a play just because a coach asks them to review it.

In fact it actually says the only thing that can trigger the use of replay on a 3-point shot is if "officials are uncertain whether a successful field goal was correctly scored as a 2ptfg or 3ptfg."

If you watch the replay, the official standing behind Allen had a clear view and never hesitated in calling it a 3. It was the underneath official that came over and suggested they go look at the replay.

*sigh* Nobody said pie celebrations are unusual. It was how this one happened that was different. The "unusual celebration" was McCutchen pulled his hair back and allowed his teammate to pie him. How many times have you seen THAT? Wow.

Per ounce is one way to do it. But if you are going to CitiField, what difference does it make if the Diamondbacks have a better deal? There is no comparison shopping for beers at a ballpark. The question is: "How much do I have to spend on a beer at ballpark A?" It is not like you can go to CitiField and order 4 oz. There is a set price. And if you want a beer at a particular ballpark, this is the minimum that you would have to spend.

I'm not sure what your point is. All of those articles support the notion that he was once considered the top pick in the draft. He then played his senior year, took a huge step back, and lost millions, which was the point of this article.
